If we're announcing it, this could work:
* A new `images' library produces ray-traced icons and logos, and
provides macros to embed these and other computed bitmaps into compiled
programs. DrRacket is the first major consumer.
When I make the rendering API public - which includes the ray tracer,
pict-like combiners for two-and-a-half-dimensional bitmaps, and fast
image processing primitives, all in Typed Racket - there will be more to
say. Do we want to wait to announce `images' until then?
